Pastoral Emphasis from 12/09

This is the second Sunday of Advent. It represents love. As we prepare for the coming of Jesus, we remember that God is love and gave us the greatest gift of His Son.

Thank you for your generous giving to the love offering last month to help the victims of the California wildfires. You gave a little over $500 and the church added to it so we could donate a total of $1000 to Samaritan's Purse.

Please spread the word that there's a free Christmas Lunch for individuals and families in need. The time is 11am to 2pm on Christmas day and the location is the Golden Corral at 6129 Glenwood Ave. Check our website or call the church office for details about attending.

We will be going out Christmas caroling on Friday, the 14th at 6pm to the area nursing homes. Our Christmas program is on Saturday, the 15th at 4pm. Invite someone to come and join us.
